The song was said to have been recorded in 30 minutes in the summer of 1996, proving that Pac could write and record at a fast pace. This song was the third single on Pac’s final/first posthumous album, The Don Kiluminati: The 7 Day Theory, which was recorded under the moniker Makaveli. “Hail Mary” doesn’t get as much radio play as some of Tupac’s other radio singles, but it is still one of the greatest songs ever created. Tupac tells this story in a single verse painting a vivid picture of a young girl whose life just kept going downhill. The situation in the song leads to her being strung out in the streets and eventually dead. The song “Brenda’s Got a Baby” tells the story of a 12-year-old girl molested by her family, which leads to her being impregnated.
“Ambitionaz AZ A Ridah” is an anthem song that still gets played 20 plus years later.įrom the very beginning, Tupac made sure his rhymes were mixed with complex narratives that dealt with problems going on in the inner cities across America. This was the perfect intro for his return album because it was Daz’s hard-hitting beat with Michael Buffer’s “Let’s get ready to rumble” as part of the song. The Intro track to one of the greatest albums in Hip-hop history was a straight-in-your-face anthem that made sure that “ALL EYEZ” was on Pac. This was one of Pac songs that just flowed together very well and was filled with uplifting lyrics. Throughout the song, Pac is promoting hope, positivity during tragic circumstances.
When it comes to “Keep Ya Head Up,” this is one of Pac’s greatest songs because it was a song that was a celebration of black women.
Daz from the Dogg Pound created the perfect beat that that would become a legendary song for both rappers.
At the time of the creation of the song, Snoop had been acquitted of murder charges, and Pac had been set free after serving time for a sexual assault conviction. When Tupac and Snoop came together to create “2 of Amerikaz Most Wanted,” it felt more like a celebration for their freedom of criminal justice. It’s crazy how even in 2021, change is a song that is still relevant because of how the police act towards black men in America. In the song, Tupac talked about race, class, and politics. Tupac always made sure to get straight to the point in his music, and “Changes” wasn’t different. This is a song that wasn’t released as a single while he was alive. This is a track that still gets radio play today. “Changes” is one of the most melodic Tupac songs ever created. In this article, I will be naming the ten greatest Tupac songs of All-Time.
